The Colombian abortion law is responsible for thousands of deaths, and goes as far as to imprison women for up to 5 years for having an abortion. It is a violation of a number of human rights treaties, which, under Colombian law, are superior to domestic law. It's a very interesting case. I'm doing a paper on it, so I'll post more as my research crystallizes.
